Previously a <matrix> element could only accept four <double> literals.
It now accepts full expressions, which can in turn poke into the
pattern, do math, etc.
Allows reading configuration files, fonts and cache files from
the directories where the XDG Base Directory Specification defines.
the old directories are still in the configuration files for
the backward compatibility.
Add a new attribute `ignore-blanks' to <test>.
When this is set to "true", any blanks in the string will be ignored
on comparison. This takes effects for compare="eq" or "not_eq" only.
Also changed the behavior of the comparison on <alias> too.
The syntax to add any characters to the charset table looks like:
<match target="scan">
<test name="family">
<string>Buggy Sans</string>
</test>
<edit name="charset" mode="assign">
<plus>
<name>charset</name>
<charset>
<int>0x3220</int> <!-- PARENTHESIZED IDEOGRAPH ONE -->
</charset>
</plus>
</edit>
</match>
To remove any characters from the charset table:
<match target="scan">
<test name="family">
<string>Buggy Sans</string>
</test>
<edit name="charset" mode="assign">
<minus>
<name>charset</name>
<charset>
<int>0x06CC</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH -->
<int>0x06D2</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE -->
<int>0x06D3</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE WITH HAMZA ABOVE -->
</charset>
</minus>
</edit>
</match>
You could also use the range element for convenience:
...
<charset>
<int>0x06CC</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH -->
<range>
<int>0x06D2</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE -->
<int>0x06D3</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE WITH HAMZA ABOVE -->
</range>
</charset>
...
The Delicious family includes one named Delicious Heavy, a bold variant
which is unfortunately marked as having normal weight. Because the family
name is 'Delicious', fontconfig accidentally selects this font instead of
the normal weight variant. The fix here rewrites the scanned data by running
the scanned pattern through a new substitution sequence tagged with
<match target=scan>; a sample for the Delicious family is included to
demonstrate how it works (and fix Delicious at the same time).
Also added was a new match predicate -- the 'decorative' predicate which is
automatically detected in fonts by searching style names for key decorative
phrases like SmallCaps, Shadow, Embosed and Antiqua. Suggestions for
additional decorative key words are welcome. This should have little effect
on font matching except when two fonts share the same characteristics except
for this value.
Add detection of iconv
Document new selectfont elements
Switch to UTF-8 in comment
Add fullname, and family/style/fullname language entries
Respect selectfont/*/glob
Add support for selectfont
Add multi-lingual family/style/fullname support
Expose FcListPatternMatchAny (which selectfont/*/pattern uses)
Add new FcPatternRemove/FcPatternAppend. FcObjectStaticName stores computed
pattern element names which are required to be static.
